Your at croft on my birthday Ben, and it's a big'un I might well come down. By the way the wheel is powder coated a looks great, thanks again.

Excellent, it's good to have support and glad the wheel is sorted.

I will be there - we have planned a couple of years of testing before another pop at Bonneville in 2015. The race track is spot on for testing engine reliability. If it can last race distance it will do 3 miles throttle on the stop at Bonny.

This time we are going to put the 250 record beyond reach. We would like to top the 500 speed 148. summit to make the KR the fastest proddy two stroke ever but that is a tall order. Just putting it beyond Jim's reach is target 1

Apart from 250 we are also going to have a pop at the 650 (600) record, presently 165. summit and the PP-1000 record. This last one is the difficult one got to top 197 - that is one hell of a target for a proddy 1000cc.

Weapons of choice are

PP-250 KR-1S
PP-650 ZX6R (636) 2006
PP-1000 ZX1000 2006

For the diesel's I reckon the 2006 models have the best aero and at speed aero is king.

My 2012 race season probably won't start until Donny should do all DP apart from the last Cadwell (going to be doing the Anglesey Grand)

Re-visit to Bonny sound brilliant !!
Can't wait .. and that's only to hear how you get on !!
Very best of luck

Snett entry so far

74 Dan Williams Sutton Coldfield Yamaha TZR 250
8 Lee Healey Dudley Aprilia RS 250
18 David Reynolds Dudley Suzuki RGV 250
28 Graeme Fraser Hounslow Suzuki RGV 250
7 Alex Leek Telford h***a NSR 250
73 Ben Ludford Kimcote Kawasaki KR1S 250
6 Pete Lodge Huntingdon Kawasaki KR1S 250

Sounds like Dan will be on his NSR as the TZR is playing up.
Fontyy and myself will be out to play when it gets warmer - I don't do cold

still at least 7 proddy 250's on the grid is good for the season opener.
Rocket may still make it out on his KR, he's waiting to see what the hospital say about his shoulder.

I'm going to Snetterton with an RS 250 and VJ23

8 Lee Healey Dudley Aprilia RS 250
18 David Reynolds Dudley Suzuki RGV 250

I will just be watching
Going thurs night though as they are practicing on friday

Hopefully see you there Coming up Saturday morning

I've blagged garage 2 from Jim, so see you in the morning Mark.

I'll be up Friday evening, around 6:30ish, so see you there Martin.

Will pop in and see you Ben. We are out in force, Fran is either ACU steward or incident officer can't remember which, Ursi is doing back of the grid and I am on recovery. So I expect to only see you in the garage or watch you on track non of us want to meet you in a professional capacity

PS I will bring two wheels up so you have a choice.

Thanks Mark, see you there!

Weekend is over and I now look forward to Cadwell next month.

Was great seeing everyone again after a winter of hibernation and good meeting up with Headcotes.

The KR of Pete Lodge developed a bottom end problem in first practise, so didn't see a race and I blew my head gasket on lap 2 of the first race and couldn't get my bike to work for the rest of the weekend, so all in all, pretty bad weekend for us.

I'll come back strong for Cadwell.

Great weekend
Nice to have caught up with Luders and his Clan,I now know 2 people on this forum
Mixed weekend too as Dave had 2 seizures (Dave had spare bike) and Lee's bike ,the top piston was wrecked so barrels had to be changed on the Aprilia
Also 2 crashes on practice day on friday
I think i will keep to my LC's as they are a less pig off a job to work on
Dave did pick up two 2nd places in his class though

Might go to Cadwell, but not sure yet as i'm a lightweight
